I've always loved sketchers, as I got older and needed more from my shoes I started to wear Birkenstocks, Keens, and Brooks for working out. I saw these at the mall and took a pamphlet and look up some info online.
I decided that these are a step towards MBT's without dropping $250, and bought a pair. Most shoes are made so your foot hits the ground flat, in the same way every time; these (MBT's, Shape-Ups, and some others) are made so your foot is supported and protected, but that support is on squishy foam that your foot and leg muscles have to work in mini, multi directions to keep you standing up.
It sounds weird to say it's like walking barefoot on sand, there is nothing else that feels closer. After walking to the video and grocery store, my feet and legs feel like I took a walk on the beach.
I know that every little bit helps and I walk a lot in my neighborhood, so it is a great shoe for me to have.
Love These Shoes

I bought these shoes and just love them. I wear them all weekend long running errands and walking my dog in the evenings. Wish Sketchers would make a shoe that looked more professional that could be worn to work each day.
I have osteoarthritis in both knees and I don't feel any pain while wearing these plus they are a great workout for your muscles.
These Rock!

I have had these for about a week now and they ROCK! And they are comfortable. I have severe osteoporosis and have suffered from lower back pain for many years, I bought these to walk the dogs in, and for the first time in many years, my back wasn't in severe pain after a 30-45 minute walk. I can't wait to see if they add more styles.
Comfortable, good for calves.

I've had these shoes for a few weeks now, and have worn them most days since I bought them. They have definitely toned my calves quite a bit. I have some physical issues that necessitate shoes with supportive, cushiony soles and inserts, and have found these shoes to be great in that regard, eliminating a significant amount of pain I have felt with other shoes. They took a little bit of getting used to in terms of the curved soles, but not much.
So Comfortable!!!

I love the Skechers Shape-Ups so much I just ordered another pair. I am 66 years old and do a lot of walking. These shoes feel so good on my little bony feet. I wear size 8 in Nike & Reebok but ordered size 8.5 in this shoe. Fits perfectly. If you're vacillating and don't know if you want to spend the money on these shoes, just go for it. You won't be sorry.
Skechers shoes for men, women, boys, and girls fit your fun and energetic lifestyle. Get Skechers style in sneakers, casual shoes, sandals, boots, and dressy looks.
